Welcome to EPT Nokia Open!

I am writing this message as an Tournament Official and EPT Tour Manager, helping the main Tournament Director Kai Vesa with scoring and other competition related matters. 

Here we have collected some important information for all the players.

Groups and tee-times

Groups and tee-times for the first round are published under first round in Metrix, HERE. Those are also published on event's UDisc page (HERE) and will later be updated also to event's PDGA page (HERE). Remember to double-check your tee-time in the evening and also in the morning before the first round. Minor changes might possible if there are some late cancellations.

For the second and third round the schedule will be similar to first round. Groups are based on results, best results starts last. First group of FPO will tee-off at 9:10 and lead card at 9:30. First group of MPO will tee-off at 10:00 and lead card at 15:30. Tee-times will be published after the whole division has finished the previous round and scores are checked.

• For the first round, check-in at the latest 30 minutes before your tee-time at tee #1
• For the second and third round 10 minutes before tee-time at tee #1

Short group meeting for all groups immediately when the previous group has left at tee #1.

Caddy book

Scoring

The official scoring platform is UDisc. If you don't have UDisc app, you should download it before the event. Scores needs to be filled with full stats, but you can do it after the hole is finished. Some of the groups might have a designated scorekeeper doing throw-by-throw scoring and also caddies are able to mark the scores (ask more from UDisc tent at tee #1). Final scores must be verified on UDisc scorekeeper's phone after checking everything is okay.

Back-up scoring paltform is Disc Golf Metrix. Scores must be equal to UDisc scores and players need to sign their scores from own Metrix. Paper cards are available for secondary back-up.

Practising and warm-up

Practising and/or warm-up is forbidden on the course during the competition rounds. This means from the very first group tee-off to the last group to finish the last hole. Use designated areas for your warm-up.
